Africa Sightseeing, attractions, culture and history Tours 2020/2021

“As a group of friends we booked the 4 day 3 night cruise from Aswan to Luxor with Imperial Egypt.

Our tour guide Hady was on time to pick us up from our hotel and we had the pleasure of his company and great sense of humour for the rest of the cruise! His friendly nature and fluent English combined with his extensive knowledge of Ancient Egyptian history served to bring each place we visited alive. The balance between engaging explanations and free time meant we we were able to explore at our own pace. Hady went above and beyond being a tour guide, he was an entertaining companion sharing anecdotes and giving us advice about life in Egypt. He even offered a morning alarm call to our cabin to check we were up and awake in time! At the end of the tour he took us to a restaurant in Luxor to finish the experience with a delicious kofta meal.

The itinerary included an amazing array of visits with transport and tickets arranged as well as additional optional trips such as to Abu Simbel (which I would highly recommend). As a small group of six, Hady was able to make the itinerary suit us, moving some of the Luxor trips around so we would have enough time at each. As all three of us were students, Hady arranged to buy us discounted student tickets and was able to return the money we had saved at the end of the trip.

Our boat was the M/S Mahrousa (Sunrise Resorts & Cruises). The boat was lovely and our cabin was clean and had everything we needed. All meals were included and the food was excellent and served in a buffet style. The staff on the boat were very friendly and helpful, with the restaurant staff helping us practise our Arabic and housekeeping leaving us an entertaining towel sculpture each day!

Overall a great experience and excellent value for money. The January weather meant the cruise was pleasantly warm and sunny whilst not too hot. I would thoroughly recommend the cruise and Hady as a tour guide!”

“We spent four full days in Egypt. Ayoub our very friendly tour leader was waiting for us at the airport which was wonderful and took us to our hotel. He outlined what would be happening on the trip and went through the options we could take up. Our hotel was clean and comfortable and very near the new Cairo museum. The next day our very informative friendly guide Bisho took us around the pyramids , Sphinx and old museum as well as a couple of places to buy souvenirs. Ayoub organised an interesting evening exploring local food and the old Cairo city. The next day we were driven to Alexandria where our local guide Nancy met us to go through the main features of Alexandria. She was great, easy to communicate with and very helpful. The following morning we had a very early flight to Luxor where Muhmood our amazingly knowledgable and helpful Egyptologist took us to the Valley of the Kings and Queens and surrounding areas. That night we spent the evening in the exciting Steigenberger Nile Palace which had a great view of the Nile. The following day he took us through the Luxor and Karnak temples.
All the guides were knowledgable and very attentive and fun to be with. It was a very relaxed time.”

“Look At Egypt Tours was a dream company to travel with, they exceeded every expectation and made every moment of the trip enjoyable and hassle free. Our guide Noha in Cairo and Muhammed on the cruise were very professional and helpful vehicles, hotels and the Nile cruise We can’t wait to travel with them in the future!”
